Married to a sports fan

I should have known. I should have known that I was in trouble when Sports Center was the first channel my husband turned on when we returned from our honeymoon. Now - ask me, and I can actually sing the Sports Center theme music.

Let me ask all you sports fans... how much can really change in the matter of a few hours? I mean really! There are only so many games happening in a day - right? How long does it take to get a report on all of them? And why do sports anchors have to yell? Is it that they've spent too long in stadiums with loud obnoxious fans? Do they think we've spent too much time there?

And GOLF - don't get me started on golf. How boring is golf to watch? At least with football there's action! Golf is the prefect Sunday afternoon nap sport. Ugh. Now as the football season gears up through pre-season, I foresee my future. Sunday after Sunday with the Bears games playing, C yelling at the TV, and the dog trying to apologize for whatever he's done to make C yell. And what is with fantasy football? Who's fantasy is that?

I suppose there are worse addictions for a spouse to have. I should be glad for the sports addiction.
